trying hard to break through.... and the forecast is for us to get
up to 18c later: having said that there
is a cool breeze from the East. Could
this be the first sign of winter?
I
have been round the villages on the bike and everything is where it should
be... so... (apart from the odd bit of litter) the Centre of the Universe all

19.30 The sky has greyed over in the last our or
so, after what has been a bonnie, warm
day. The forecast is for rain, heavy

yellow warning out for Fife: the rain

that I already mentioned... and I’m thinking of bagging up jackets etc that I
no longer use, and taking them to a clothes re-cycling ‘bin’. A showery day would be good for that kind of job.
I think I’ll find plenty things to do if the weather is naughty.
